Cork Whiskey Society host regular whiskey tasting events in Cork. We meet regularly to learn about the rich heritage of distilling our native spirit in Ireland, to enjoy the company of fellow whiskey-lovers and to sample interesting whiskeys that are often prohibitively rare and expensive for the individual consumer.

Upcoming events

Cork Whiskey Society have completed the first of a planned series of expeditions to the Provinces of Ireland. To represent Munster, we recently headed to our near neighbours in the Kingdom of Kerry. We enjoyed the sights and sounds of Dingle distillery and one of the most highly rated whiskey bars in Ireland, Dick Macks and we also visited our good friends at The Celtic Whiskey Bar & Larder, Killarney.

"Quite simply, we're all about whiskey"

Come to a Tasting

Tasting attendee's, including non-members, are a diverse bunch who share the enjoyment of rare whiskeys in a social setting. You'll be pleasantly surprised by the cordial, fun atmosphere. The days of stuffy, boring Society's are long gone!

Membership

Cork Whiskey Society membership is a great way to enhance your knowledge and enjoyment of mostly Irish whiskeys in the company of like-minded individuals. We've yet to find a more enjoyable way to sip fine whiskey.

Sell your Whiskey

We're always on the lookout for vintage Irish whiskeys to include in our tastings. We provide, at no obligation, expert appraisal and a means to sell on your old Irish whiskey. You may even opt to join us when we finally sample that old relic!

Be assured that most any questions you have on Irish whiskey will be answered. We have a panel of experts that work within the whiskey industry; distillers, publicans and whiskey retailers, yet rest assured we don't take ourselves too seriously. Our tastings are relaxed, informative affairs with plenty of banter.
